John Galt Day Celebrations Downtown

While the rest of the country celebrates the Civic Holiday or Simcoe Day as it’s become known…Guelph will celebrate John Galt Day, in honour of our founding father.
John Galt gave Guelph it’s name in 1827 and every August long weekend, the city gathers to remember the man.
Festivities will begin Saturday at 10 in front of City Hall with live entertainment, food trucks and activities for the whole family.
Guelph Farmer’s Market Vendors will be set-up along Wilson Street as well as inside the market as usual.
